What Would I Use?

Reflection 2
IPT 286

I enjoyed reviewing the use of Google Docs. I think it is a splendid resource for group work. I started a new job working with the LDS motion picture studio the same day we talked about it, and we frequently use Google Docs. I like that a host of people can be working on something at the same time and you can watch the text change right before your eyes in real time.
Of the other resources we talked about I think Diigo seemed to be the most interesting and helpful. I always find myself returning to websites and not knowing where that tidbit of information is that I need. Diigo is perfect for doing research and keeping interesting readings within the touch of a button.
As a teacher the Google Docs resource could be important because it allows  for total class involvement in things. Just as we signed up for gospel insights using a class document, individual or group input can be compiled in any classroom setting. Students can "share" documents instead of turning them in. No more excuses for where the paper assignment is. Teachers can comment on the assignment electronically and there is no traditional waiting for assignments to be handed back. Google Docs is quickly becoming my favorite resource for teaching and learning.
